I believe in one true God ever existent in three persons. I and all man are sinners and we cannot experience God due to this sin. Jesus Christ, born of a Virgin, came to earth and lived as a man, and was offered up as an atoning sacrifice for all of mans sin. He died, and rose again. He ascended into Heaven and will return someday in his Glory. When a person submits his life to Jesus they are forgiven of their sin, and are indwelt with the Holy Spirit, and their relationship with God is mended and they will live forever in God's presence. God's revelation is written in the Holy Bible. It is perfect and infallible. Through the scriptures and prayer I can obtain a personal relationship with Jesus. My life should show the fruits of the spirit, and I should reflect the light of Christ.

In September of 2000 I realized that I had lived a life based on my own will. I had committed terrible sins and had hurt many. I needed a savior and was told of God's love for me. Over a period of 4 weeks, and ultimately a 20 minute period of time I submitted my life to Christ and have never looked back.
My greatest moment of doubt was ...

I doubted everything during my pre-conversion life. I knew who Jesus was that he actually existed but I had not put my trust in him. Since that faithful day in 2000, I have never doubted Him.

Christianity is an exclusive faith. It is the opposite. Christ died for everyone. His grace is for everyone. Simply come to Christ and submit your life. Whether your from, Texas, Tehran, or Tahiti Christ wants to grant you eternal life.

Are your beliefs or practices different from your parents? If so, how and why?

Basically the same now. My parents could see my conversion and how the Spirit of God had changed me. I believe it has led them down the same path.
If you have children, did becoming a parent change your relationship to faith? If so, how?

I came to Christ after I had children. Hopefully the faith I practice has had an effect upon them.
Where and when do you practice your faith?

Everyday all day. Christians need to consider Christ all the time. Everything one does is a reflection on their relationship with Christ. I attend church weekly, read and pray everyday, and discuss Christ with my students daily.
